Out of 934 active hate groups in the U.S. Texas is home to 66. That’s according to The Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hate Map of Texas. Texas leads the nation in the number of hate groups. California comes in 2nd on this list with 60. SPLC didn’t include individuals with hateful websites alone. They focused on organizations of individuals that “have beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics.”

Various Texas groups from all over the state made the SPLC’s list. From the Austin chapter of League of the South to the Houston chapter of the Nation of Islam. All of major metropolitan and many rural areas are home to the groups on the list.

I wonder at what point did we as a nation decide that we wanted to change anything? At what point did we decide that it was a good idea to let illegals have free health care, access to OUR Social Security and free housing? At what point did we decide to chuck religion out the window and turn our backs on Christianity which was one of the  reasons for the Pilgrims coming over here in the first place? At what point did we decide that special interest groups, lobbyists and our elected officials taking brides were acceptable?
At some point, we lost control and I can only sit and wonder why.
